I'm running late this weekend because I had so many other chores to take care of, and also the shading on this page was really time consuming for dumb fill-correction reasons... urgh.... 7 more pages to go

Can't wait to uuuuuhhh not draw raindrops in 2 minus two pages

This one is so visually busy, I feel like I should probably mess with the values later to make things more clear....

I have switched from lining and shading these in Photoshop to clip studio paint. I got used to the CSP hot keys while I drew all those monkey slides and now trying to use Photoshop is really frustrating, I keep pressing the wrong keys while I'm trying to draw. There are definitely some Photoshop features that I'm missing thou...

Ewa U. Collab Slides 1

Heeeeey finally getting around to those video slides (n~n)/

All my projects got put off for two weeks because I was (A) job searching, and (B) my girlfriend was visiting from Canada. But I have a job now and girlfriend is back home! So I've been catching up on everything as fast as I ca...

Avian Sky Dancing

All sapients in RttS have cultural dances, but avians have the unique advantage when when it comes to movement in the air. Aerial dancing without props is commonplace, but routines often include the use of trailing smoke or ribbons. Flying with ribbons in particular is seen as a feat of both beauty and endurance-- flying is a...

Exciting news, mostly for me: I got Clip Studio Paint EX, and this is the last comic page I had to hand-edit panel and dialog balloons for. It was taking me over an hour per page before, and with the vector functions in Clip I sat down and did the last 19 pages all in one evening. While still learning how to use the features!...

Ewa U. Collab Video Thumbnails

More progress in the collaboration video I'm doing with Worldbuilding Notes/Ewa U. This is the art thumbnails minus script, so you get to make your very own monkey story!

More Talita Caretakers

I posted a pic of Talita’s higher education sponsor/mentor/boss/weird ambiguous parent, who I’m either naming Brook or Kim, but she had two others before them.

Douglas was her primary childhood caretaker, and was endeared with her from the moment an infant Talita showed up on the orphanage doorstep (in a cat carrie...

THERE GO THE ROCKS! TIME TO FLY!

And I'm officially halfway through the comic!! Very excited about that.

RttS Assorted Story Scribbles

Was thinking more about the situation on Dirtball before Talita even meets Bip and the runaway is repaired. Talita's mentor is named Mel, short for Melanie.

These pages with the sled in them are kinda, the worst; like its great fun drawing a machine once, but then drawing it again and again from multiple angles REALLY takes the wind out of my sails. Buuut I'm doin it anyways

Airsled Proportions Ref

This is the proportions reference I drew up for the titular airsled so stuff doesn't wiggle around... TOO much from panel to panel. For the interested, the average human here would be about as tall, if not taller than than the pullgoose. Piawii is like... knee height compared to a human. The sled is still pretty big comparati...

Ewa U. Collab Monkeys

I have been planning a collaboration with Youtuber Ewa U./Worldbuilding Notes (it's in the very early stages, don't get too excited) involving some small intelligent animals that live in her fantasy river basin. I've been assistin...

Lotsa ummmm dark bushes in this one. Yeah I got nothin

Gillie’s Family

Im having a lot of fun coming up with eccentric parents for my characters, lol. I decided to give Gillie two dads because it jives with her being an adoptee, and also RttS is chock full of girls so I felt like evening the score.

Short dad is really into ball pythons, tall dad likes to dress nice but hates wearing shoes...

Guiomar’s Family

Tween Guiomar and their fabulously wealthy parents.... they’re alright people, though you could certainly debate how ethical commissioning a designer GMH infant is.

I need to do more sitting in cafes drawing customers because I wanna capture how odd and beautiful random people you meet can be. These three are based on...

The geese are just chillin till it's their turn to do the grunt labor.

In other news I have a wrist surgery today in my dominant hand, wish me luck! 😞

Fakemon Doodles

Back when that "tell me what pokemon type I am" thing was going around twitter, I drew some of the types people chose for me, and also I chose for me because I like electric types. They are based on the 3 known plants capable of rapid motion: Grass/Flying Mimosa Pudica, Grass/Bug Semaphore Plant, and Grass/Electric Venus Fly ...
